You do understand that performance and luxury can exist at the same time?

1 is built like a 1993 Geo Metro both in terms of build quality and materials. 1 is built like a modern high end luxury vehicle. I'll let you guess which is which.

Keep telling yourself that's why the Tesla didn't even make the list.

WE? Who in the hell is WE? WE weren't. You're the only one that keeps using these idiotic "categories" (that you can't even define) to try to spin shit.

The Tesla Model Y is a basic ass piece of shit SUV that happens to go fast in a straight line.

BTW, the Model X is almost 1000 lbs heavier than the Model Y..
Stick to talking about things that you actually know something about. When it comes to anything even remotely related to a road course, you are absolutely f**king clueless. Even if it could manage to run 1 lap faster, it sure as shit can't do it for any amount of time. You are completely incapable of understanding anything beyond a singular number. 1 lap doesn't make something a better performance vehicle. Horsepower doesn't make something a better performance vehicle. 1/4 doesn't make something a better performance vehicle. Despite your inability to grasp anything beyond that, it is not that simple. If you watch that video and don't see the problem with the Tesla, there is nothing else left to say. You really are completely incapable of critical thinking at even the most basic level. Clearly no amount of facts or information is going to change that.

The most absurd part, the thing that is absolutely mind blowing at this point... is that you still can't get it through your f**king head that none of that shit matters to 99% of the people buying SUVs. People buying a BMW or a Mercedes care about the seats. They care about the type of leather. They care about how it looks (lol Tesla), they care about how it feels. They care about the wheels. They care about about a very long list of things that aren't horsepower. Go ask a few X5M owners whether they care that the Tesla is faster in a straight line. They don't walk into a BMW dealership and ask how much horsepower the X5 has. They don't ask what the skidpad number is. They don't ask how fast it can run a lap on whatever track. That shit. Doesn't. Matter.

I've met some dense people in my life but holy shit, you are on a whole new level.
